“…Because of the predominant absence of organic diseases [1,54], the recurring occurrence of AP is mostly classified as a functional gastrointestinal disorder (FGID) [39]. Functional abdominal pain (FAP) and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) are the most frequent FGIDs in childhood [10,23] and are characterized by recurrent or continuous AP for at least 2 months [39]. IBS is additionally accompanied by changes in defecation (diarrhea and/or constipation) and/or relief of symptoms after defecation [39].…”

Functional abdominal pain and irritable bowel syndrome are two prevalent disorders in childhood which are associated with recurrent or chronic abdominal pain, disabilities in daily functioning, and reduced quality of life. This study aimed to evaluate a brief hypnotherapeuticbehavioral intervention program in a prospective randomized controlled design. Thirty-eight children, 6 to 12 years of age, and their parents were randomly assigned to a standardized hypnotherapeutic-behavioral treatment (n=20) or to a waiting list condition (n=18). Both groups were reassessed 3 months after beginning. Primary outcome variables were child-completed pain measures and pain-related disability. Secondary outcome variables were parent-completed measures of their children's pain and pain-related disability. Health-related quality of life from both perspectives also served as a secondary outcome. In the treatment group, 11 of 20 children (55.0 %) showed clinical remission (>80 % improvement), whereas only one child (5.6 %) in the waiting list condition was classified as responder. Children in the treatment group reported a significantly greater reduction of pain scores and pain-related disability than children of the waiting list condition. Parental ratings also showed a greater reduction of children's abdominal pain and pain-related disability. Health-related quality of life did not increase significantly. Conclusions: Hypnotherapeutic and behavioral interventions are effective in treating children with long-standing AP. Treatment success of this brief program should be further evaluated against active interventions with a longer follow-up.

74Çocuklarda Tekrarlayan Karın Ağrısı:Organik mi, Fonksiyonel mi?Ö ÖZ ZE ET T A Am ma aç ç: : Çocuklarda sık görülen bir durum olan tekrarlayan karın ağrısı organik ya da fonksiyonel olabilmektedir. Bu çalışmada, tekrarlayan karın ağrısına yol açan parazitozlar, çöl-yak hastalığı, idrar yolu enfeksiyonu, Helicobacter pylori enfeksiyonu gibi organik nedenlerin değerlendirilmesi ve fonksiyonel gastrointestinal bozuklukların belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. G Ge er re eç ç v ve e Y Yö ön nt te em ml le er r: : Çalışmaya başka bilinen bir hastalığı olmayan ve ilaç kullanmayan, en az üç ay süreyle en az üç kez tekrarlayan karın ağrısı olan çocuklar dâhil edildi. Ağrı karakteri, laboratuvar bulguları, radyolojik incelemeler, histopatolojik bulgular geriye dönük olarak değer-lendirildi. B Bu ul lg gu ul la ar r: : Çalışmaya ortalama yaşı 10,7±3,4 (4-17) yıl olan, ortanca 12 (3-20) aydır tekrarlayan karın ağrısı olan 151 (%57,6'sı kız) hasta alındı. Roma III kriterlerine göre; 81 (%53,6) hastada fonksiyonel gastrointestinal bozukluk, 70 (%46,4) hastada karın ağrısına yol açabilecek organik bir neden saptandı. Fonksiyonel ve organik nedenler arasında yaş, cinsiyet, ağrı süresi ve ağrı özellikleri açısından fark bulunmadı. Fonksiyonel gastrointestinal bozukluklar arasında en sık (%62,9) fonksiyonel karın ağrısı saptandı. Organik nedenli tekrarlayan karın ağrısı olan hastaların %46'sında Helicobacter pylori enfeksiyonu, %10,5'inde dışkıda parazit yumurtası, %3,9'unda biyopsi destekli çölyak hastalığı saptandı. S So on nu uç ç: : Fonksiyonel ve organik karın ağrısının ayırt edilmesinde yaş, cinsiyet, ağrı özellikleri, eşlik eden başka yakınmalar, fizik inceleme bulguları açısından bir fark saptanmamıştır. Çölyak hastalığı, tekrarlayan karın ağrısı olan bütün çocuklarda taranmalıdır.A An na ah h t ta ar r K Ke e l li i m me e l le er r: : Çocuk; çölyak hastalığı; karın ağrısı; Helicobacter pylori A AB BS S T TR RA AC CT T O Ob bj je ec ct ti iv ve e: : Recurrent abdominal pain is common in childhood, it may be functional or associated with organic disease. Evaluation of organic causes of recurrent abdominal pain such as parasitic enfestations, celiac disease, uriner tract infection, Helicobacter pylori infection and determine functional gastrointestinal disorders in children were aimed in the study. M Ma at te er ri ia al l a an nd d M Me et th ho od ds s: : Children with recurrent abdominal pain more than three times in frequency, for at least three months duration, without a known medical history and drug usage were recruited to study. Medical records were evaluated for pain characteristics, laboratory, radiological and histopathological findings, retrospectively. R Re es su ul lt ts s: : A hundred and fifty-one children [(57.6% female, mean age 10.7±3.4 (4-17) years] with recurrent abdominal pain for median 12 (3-20) months, were recruited to study. According to Rome III criteria; 81 (53.6%) patients had functional gastrointestinal disorders, 70 (46.4%) patients had an organic etiology. There was no difference between function...
